We identify optical emission-line features 700" (12 kpc) southwest of the nucleus of Centaurus A, roughly opposite the radio jet and well-known optical emission filaments associated with the northern radio structure. These regions are…
We present a list of weak emission lines (WELs) observed in a sharp-lined B3 V star {\iota} Her (HD 160762) using high resolution (R = 65000) and high SN (~1300) spectral data. The list covers a spectral region between 4900A and 10000A. We…
A study of the O/Fe ratio in metal-poor main sequence and subgiant stars is presented using the [OI] 6300A line, the OI 7774A triplet, and a selection of weak FeII lines observed on high-resolution spectra acquired with the VLT UVES…
Previously unrecognized weak emission lines originating from high excitation states of Si II (12.84 eV) and Al II (13.08 eV) are detected in the red region spectra of slowly rotating early B-type stars. We surveyed high resolution spectra…
The spectrum of neutral iron is critical to astrophysics, yet furnace laboratory experiments cannot reach many high-lying Fe I levels. Instead, Peterson & Kurucz (2015) and Peterson, Kurucz & Ayres (2017) turned to UV and optical spectra of…
We have analyzed the emission line properties of 6019 Type II AGN at redshifts between 0.4-0.8 with [OIII] luminosities greater than 3x10^8 Lsun, characteristic of the Type II quasars first identified in population studies by Zakamska et al…
In this poster, we present an investigation of a new, preferred diagnostic tool for the determination of the sulphur abundance of disk stars, see also Ryde A&A (2006). We are in the process of analyzing a large set of stars both in the…
Stellar absorption lines of heavy elements can give us various insights into the chemical evolution of the Galaxy and nearby galaxies. Recently developed spectrographs for the near-infrared wavelengths are becoming more and more powerful…
We report the first detection of the 205 um 3P1 - 3P0 [NII] line from a ground-based observatory using a direct detection spectrometer. The line was detected from the Carina star formation region using the South Pole Imaging Fabry-Perot…
Gas in the million degree range occurs in a variety of astronomical environments, and it may be the main component of the elusive missing baryons at low redshift. The NVII ion is found in this material and it has a hyperfine spin-flip…
We have obtained sensitive long-slit spectra of Diffuse Ionized Gas (DIG) in the Andromeda Galaxy, M31, covering the wavelength range of 3550-6850 Angs. By co-adding extracted DIG spectra, we reached a 1 sigma uncertainty of 9.3E-19…
The nearby spiral galaxy NGC 7331 was spectrally mapped from 5-38um using all modules of Spitzer's IRS spectrograph. A strong new dust emission feature, presumed due to PAHs, was discovered at 17.1um. The feature's intensity is nearly half…
We report the detection of N V 1239 A transition region emission in HST/GHRS spectra of the A7 V stars, Alpha Aql and Alpha Cep. Our observations provide the first direct evidence of 1-3 x 10^5 K material in the atmospheres of normal A-type…
We report on a Chandra line spectrum observation of the O supergiant, Zeta Orionis (O9.7 Ib). A 73.4 ks HETGS observation shows a wide range of ionization stages and line strengths over the wavelength range of 5 to 26 A. The observed…
We have obtained deep spectra from 1640 to 10100A with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) of the Strontium Filament, a largely neutral emission nebulosity lying close to the very luminous star Eta Carinae and showing an…
We report the detection of the 1_{10}-1_{11} ground state transition of ortho-H_2D^+ at 372.421 GHz in emission from the young stellar object NGC 1333 IRAS 4A. Detailed excitation models with a power-law temperature and density structure…
We report the first identification of forbidden line components from an element heavier than helium in the spectrum of astrophysical plasmas. As yet, these components were identified only in laboratory plasmas and not in astrophysical…
We present a Magellan/MIKE high-resolution (R ~ 35,000) spectrum of the ancient star SD 1313-0019 which has an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = -5.0, paired with a carbon enhancement of [C/Fe] ~ 3.0. The star was initially identified by Allende…
Context. In the advent of new infrared, high-resolution spectrometers, accurate and precise atomic data in the infrared is urgently needed. Identifications, wavelengths, strengths, broadening and hyper-fine splitting parameters of stellar…
We report the first mid-IR detection of highly disturbed ionized gas in the ultraluminous infrared galaxy IRAS F00183-7111. The gas, traced by the 12.81um [NeII] and 15.56um [NeIII] lines, spans a velocity range of-3500 to 3000 km/s with…
